Single-step Replacement of an Unreactive C-H Bond by a C-S Bond Using Polysulfide as the Direct Sulfur Source in Anaerobic Ergothioneine Biosynthesis
{{output}}
Ergothioneine, a natural longevity vitamin and antioxidant, is a thiol-histidine derivative. Recently, two types of biosynthetic pathways were reported. In the aerobic ergothioneine biosynthesis, a non-heme iron enzyme incorporates a sulfoxide to an sp2 C-H bo... ...
